I created this envelope in my Silhouette Design Studio with some basic shapes. I sized so that it would be the perfect size to hold a gift card.

The target on the front was also created in the Silhouette Design Studio with just some basic circles. The arrow was a free download from the Silhouette store some time ago. I cut the arrow three times and layered them on top of one another so that it would have a chipboard feel to it.

The sentiment is from Scrappy Moms Stamps "Terrific Teachers!" set. With the end of school coming near this the the perfect set to have on hand for all that cards and gifts you will want to create.

Here is the back of the gift card holder. I have my template saved so that I can vary the shape of my flap.

The flap is being kept closed with Super Strong Magnetic Disks that are now being carried by Scrappy Moms Stamps.

In this picture I wanted you to see how I covered the magnets. I just used Ranger Glossy Accents to adhere them and that seems to be holding the magnets securely.

These new Scrappy Moms Stamps products are available for purchase and ready to ship.

Today Scrappy Moms Stamps is releasing to brand new sets of stamps and you are surely going to love them.

I made a cute little tag with the new For Peeps Sake set.

My 24 year old son has always loved marshmallow peeps so when I saw the peeps on a stick I had to buy them!

This little tag was created using my Silhouette and a background shape I purchased from the Silhouette store. The little peep is from SVG Cutting Files Cup Cake Chick Slide Card. I glittered it up with some Martha Stewart glitter and added some black cardstock to the back so the eye would show up.

My sentiment is from Scrappy Moms Stamps For Peeps Sake set.

Here's a look at the entire set:

This is the cutest set. So perfect for all your Easter themed projects! There is also made a coordinating shadows SVG file - you can download it HERE.

Here's a look at the new Scrappy Moms Stamps Terrific Teachers set:

This set will help you show your appreciation to all the teachers who do such a great job with your little ones! ClickHERE for the shadows SVG flie for Terrific Teachers.

* Note: Make sure to have actual size selected when you import the SVG files into your cutting program. *

Our super Design Team, including out March Guest Designer - Brianna from Happy Scrapper, will have new projects using these two new sets all this week.

Scrappy Moms Stamps is, also, happy to announce that they are now stocking Super Strong Magnetic Disks in our store. They are great for projects that need to close securely, such as gift card holders, treat boxes and shaped boxes (like purses).

Please note - these magnets are very strong. The easiest way to separate them is so slide them apart. They can break if dropped on a hard surface and are not meant for use by children!

I will be showing casing these sets over the coming week and hope you will be back to see what I have created!

Today is the start of a new Scrappy Moms Stamps Terrific Tuesday Challenge.

This new challenge is "All That Glitters!"

I decided to make another shaker card.

For my card, I took some midnight blue card stock and used some star dies to create my windows. I wanted a little texture so I ran my cardstock through my Big Shot with the D'Vine Swirls Cuttlebug folder. For some shine I sprayed it with some sparkle.

I just love how Peachy Keen Faces bring die cut to life and give them such character. In fact, my very first Peachy Keen Stamps purchase was the classic PK-490 Everyday Character Face Assortment. After that I was hooked!

I made these cute Easter Treat Bags and combined each animal with a face from a different set.

I was inspired by the colors in the photo so I thought I would try something different, at least for me. This is a CAS card but I love the way it come out. I used to Ranger Distress Inks in the following colors: Peeled Paint, Tumbled Glass, Squeezed Lemonade, and Picked Raspberry. Water coloring was so fun and easy. I just sprayed some water on some water color paper, applied the ink to my nonstick mat and sprayed that with water, then used a paint brush to brush on the color. Once I applied all the colors, I spritzed my paper again. I dried it with my heat gun then sprayed it with some Sheer Shimmer Spritz. It's hard to see in the photo but it added a bit of sparkle.

Once dry, I stamped and heat embossed the church image from PKSC-27 March 2014 and added the sentiment from this same set.

Today I am sharing a shaker card I made using a cut file from My Scrap Chick.

To create this shaker, I began with a rounded square and added the clover from My Scrap Chick's 4 Leaf Clover Trio. I used the shadow of the clover for the center. Once cut, I used the negative for my card. I used a stamp from Scrappy Moms Stamps Spring Fling set and stamped it in green. I filled the window with green and gold sequins.

Be sure to check the PKS Blog for ALL the great samples from tonight’s team.

Tonight I created a tag using PKSC-27 March 2014 Stamp of the Month.

I cut the tag with my Silhouette. The background was stamped with PK-107 Cloudy Day. The little bunny and carrots are part of the new PKSC-27 March 2014. They were colored with Copic markers. I used a Fiscars punch. I added a bit of stitching and and some ribbon and my tag was finished.

If you are looking for Peachy Keen Stamps Sneak Peek Day 3 scroll down of click HERE.

A new Scrappy Moms Stamps Terrific Tuesday Challenge has begun.

The challenge: Use Green and Gold

I saw a cute little treat holder on Inking Idaho and wanted to recreate it. You can see the original HERE.

I made the file folders in my Silhouette Design Studio. They measure 3x5 inches. I scored them at 2 3/8" and 2 5/8". The shamrock is from Miss Kate Cuttables that was a freebie a few days ago. I stamped the face from Peachy Keen Stamps PK-1370 Kawaii Face Assortment. The sentiment on the tabs is from Scrappy Moms Stamps Mini Messages. The sentiment on the front is from Scrappy Moms Stamps Spring Fling set. I heat embossed it with white embossing powder. To finish everything off I added green and gold sequins randomly on the front.

This size file folder is the perfect size for these Gharardelli chocolates. I attached them with glue dots.

This couple is so sweet! I colored the couple with my Copic markers and added some Diamond Stickles here and there for some sparkle.

Here is a closer look at the happy couple.

I embossed my white mat with a Sizzix embossing folder and I used a Fiscars punch for the bottom edge.
